Jesús Rafael Soto, Venezuelan artist working in the fields of Op-art and kinetic art, a sculptor and a painter. Paris 1974.

In his Paris studio in 1974, Venezuelan artist Jesús Rafael Soto contemplates one of his complex installations. A leading figure in Op-art and kinetic art, Soto wears a ribbed cardigan, his expression pensive as he studies the piece. The sculpture features panels covered in fine, arcing lines from which numerous thin, white rods protrude horizontally, creating the dynamic, three-dimensional effect characteristic of his work.
